  • This interpretation is what one might metion as golden. This will ultimately being over time in the 5 best that could or can ever exist.

  • That's quite amazing considering it was played on a double bass. What can't he do?!

  • @katkula this is my beloved Gilels. How I love him. And I thought the same like you, that there is no one who could play this etude good nowadays, until I found sth really impressing here on youtube: Wolfram Schmitt-Leonardy in an early recording

    Look for this one and you'll be impressed: Rachmaninoff Op.39 No.1 - Wolfram Schmitt-Leonardy
